ZEDS

PORTLAND'S SPIN ON A NZ CLASSIC.

Simply put, Zeds is the most unique ice cream in Portland. Choose your favorite fresh fruit, and our magic machine will blend your fruit into ice cream in less than a minute.

The idea for Zeds came about on a trip to New Zealand in 2015. Native to Australia and New Zealand, Real Fruit Ice Cream blends together fruit and ice cream into a smooth and fresh frozen treat. One taste, and we knew we had to bring real fruit ice cream to Portland. Zeds Real Fruit Ice Cream blends an array of Oregon grown fruits with vanilla ice cream into a smooth treat that is uniquely Portland.

Contrary to popular belief, there is no single person named Zed. But there are a few people behind this whole operation, so check out the bios below to get to know some of them.

Caleb Schmidt

CO-FOUNDER

Caleb is an Austin, TX expat living in Portland. His love for travel led to the discovery of Real Fruit Ice Cream. A leap of faith and a need for change brought him to quit his desk job and trade it in for a van he bought on Craigslist.

Matt potter

Co-Founder

A Texan through and through, Matt thought his time in Portland was done when he road-tripped back to Austin in 2014. Alas, his sweet tooth and entrepreneurial drive proved too strong and he returned for his second stint to help launch Zeds in 2016.
